Based on the books by Robyn Carr, the Netflix Drama- Virgin River is quite popular among the public. The show revolves around Mel Monroe, a nurse who moved to a small town and was oblivious to the series of tragedies in her way. Virgin River Season 3 ended with a lot of suspense, thrills and mind boggling questions. This mixed and questionable experience from last season has got fans excited for Virgin River Season 4, but some say they won’t watch the trailer. The show is set to return with a bang on July 20, 2022. Deadline has shared insights of the plot for Virgin River season 4 and it sure looks explosive.
Reason Behind The Excitement For Virgin River Season 4
Virgin River Season 4 will revolve around Mel facing a dilemma, some complicated cases and some patchy and heartbroken relationships, along with a violent criminal angle. Netflix has released new stills of the season from time to time and keeps up the buzz among the audience. The images are an indication of what will happen in the season. Virgin River has left audiences with a lot of cliffhangers and it’s definitely hard for fans to stop the craving as it’s still over a month before the show’s season airs on the Netflix platform.
Season three was full of ups and downs as Jack was shot while Brady was arrested and Mel interrupted Jack’s marriage proposal by revealing the news of her pregnancy. Talking about the plot, it could be a spoiler for a lot of people who still haven’t seen the masterpiece show. It is one of the highly recommended Netflix dramas and is also currently the most talked about. The great cast and great narration have helped Virgin River reach the hearts of the audience. So fans will now get the answer to who shot Jack and what if Charmaine knows about Mel’s pregnancy, Doc’s past, and how Preacher got out of a tough situation.
The showrunner Tenney explained the reason behind the great enthusiasm among fans for the upcoming season. She mentioned the baggage of the past carried by the main character of the story. The love story they have and sometimes don’t have is complex. There is still so much truth hidden in torn places from their past lives. Mel’s arrival in a new city has left her life on a never-ending bridge of problems, and once she’s overcome her problems with Jack, she can finally get rid of the complexity.
Are fans mad at the show and won’t see the trailer?
The reason some fans won’t watch the trailer is bizarre yet truth bombing. It is something to be noted by the creators for future reference. The show has been the center of conversation on Reddit, where a user shared how watching the previous season’s trailer ruined his experience with the show. According to him, the show’s trailer was full of spoilers and was somehow misleading. Almost the entire plot of the season was revealed in the trailer and he regretted watching it. Some claim they broke the “Not Watch Trailer” rule for Virgin River, but it ended in disappointment.
About a month before the official release of Virgin River Season 4, fans began to give love to their favorite characters from the show. They spam the actors’ social media posts with flirty comments, some even declare that they are in love with celebrities! Martin Henderson and Alexandra Breckenridge have mesmerized their admirers with their recent looks. It will be very interesting to see how both of these in-depth actors will recreate the lost chemistry of their characters in the show. Ultimately, the fans’ statement about not watching the trailer was not in a negative way. They were optimistic about the plot and actually wanted to see Virgin River season 4 without any preconceived story.
The ‘Surprise’ and ‘Disappointment’ Around Season 4
And much more, the creator Sue Tenney believes there could be countless seasons in the story, maybe that’s the reason behind the surprise! Yes, this upcoming season will have 12 episodes instead of the standard 10.
The Redditors and Twitter users have been very active, with some even demanding that they release the show early. The intertwined story comes out on July 20, 2022 at noon. This season, the questions will come to an end and all missing points from past seasons will be merged. The only thing that messes with the minds of the public is the years-long gap between the seasons. The fans have urged the makers to reduce this time difference.
Unfortunately, according to reports, there will now be a greater time gap between Virgin River season 4 and season 5. This news broke after Breckenridge (Mel) revealed via express that they were about to start season five in March, but it is already pushed. They hope to start it in the summer. So, Virgin River season 4 may be fun and will remain trending on Netflix for many weeks to come. But fans may seem disappointed as they now have to wait for more until season five and the final part of the story unlocks.
